    Hugs Sally.

    I think a lot of us feel the same way at the moment. Luckily we have a new year just around the corner. Ideal for a fresh start ;)

    hhmmmm. Well the cake is ok, apart from the corners are a bit overdone on the very top - Ithink where the silicone paper wasn't quite tight to the edges. I think I'll leave it until tomorrow and possibly try to slice the sides off, but hope at the same time it doesn't fall apart! :eek: I sliced the top off so I can turn it upside down and OH has tried the scrap bits from the top and says it is nice, but as I don't like fruit cake I don't really know.
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    I don't get fruitcake at all. :confused:

    It's not really even cake, it's just shrivelled old grapes and the bits of the orange you usually throw away.

    I LOVE grapes though.....who on earth thought.....oooh these are nice, wonder what will happen if I leave them to go off and then try to eat them.
